Thank you to everyone who donated money to @plungechicago this year! I had a blast rasing money for local families in need and cannot wait to do it again next year.

24° never felt colder.

“We can jump in the lake next year,” @plungechicago founder Brian Marchal said. “People are just going to have to plunge where they are.”

And we have another Plunge Where You Are! 🧊Kevin from Illinois stripped down to his skivvies on a "sweltering" 33°F day to share this Plunge message. Fortunately, he had a friend help him cool down from 6 feet away... 🥶
